The non-equilibrium thermal model (NETM) for porous zones in ANSYS Fluent requires the porosity to be smaller than 1 which is the default value. If you forget to adjust this value the solution diverges in the first iteration. Fluent also prints a warning after activating the model to remind you that this value must be adjusted.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-161780","topic","type-topic","status-publish","hentry","topic-tag-4391","topic-tag-conjugate-heat-transfer","topic-tag-fluent","topic-tag-fluid-dynamics","topic-tag-general","topic-tag-heat-transfer-and-radiation","topic-tag-heat-transfer","topic-tag-radiation"],"aioseo_notices":[],"aioseo_head":"\n\t\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t
